Introduction Every year, lakhs of people are affected by droughts, floods, cyclones, tsunamis, earthquakes, wildfires and other disasters associated with natural hazards. Growing populations, environmental degradation and global warming are making the impacts worse, creating greater disasters and making the need to find better ways to protect people more urgently. These events have shown the high global vulnerability towards these types of disasters, and the potential impacts on human and environmental security. Culture is dependent on an intact ecosystem and on institutional structures that can respond to the needs of local people and stake holders. Therefore, disaster preparedness and management (for natural and man-made hazards) should be an essential part of any organisation’s integrated management plan. 1. Disaster means catastrophe, mishap, calamity or grave occurrence in any area, assign from natural or manmade causes, or by accident or negligence which results in substantial of life or human suffering or damage to, and destruction of property or damage to or degradation of environment and is of such nature or magnitude as to be beyond the coping capacity of the community of the affected area. 2. Disaster is defined as a crisis situation causing wide spread damage which far exceeds our ability to recover. Thus, by definition, there cannot be a perfect ideal system that prevents damage, because then it would not be a disaster. It has to suffocate our ability to recover. Only then it can be called as ‘disaster’. Disasters are not totally discrete events. Their possibility of occurrence, time, place and severity of the strike can be reasonably and in some cases accurately predicted by technological and scientific advances. It is established that there is a definite pattern in their occurrences and hence we can to some extent reduce the impact of damage though we cannot reduce the extent of damage itself. Disasters are mainly of 2 types. 1. Natural disasters. Example- earthquakes, floods, landslides etc. 1 2. Manmade disasters. Example – war, bomb blasts, chemical leaks etc. The phases of all disasters, be it natural or manmade, are the same the disasters often differ in quantity of damage caused or in quality of the type of medical consequence. For example earthquakes caused a lot of physical injury and fractures, floods cause drown deaths and infections, chemical leaks cause toxic manifestations etc. Objectives: The project aims at: 1. Improving disaster preparedness capabilities of the authorities, stake holders, institutions and organisations (local authorities, local cultural organisations and residents) of disaster prone coastal areas for effective emergency response. 2. Raising awareness of local authorities, local residents and of the local cultural stake holders about the importance of natural and man-made disaster prevention and preparedness; 3. Improving local environmental management and coastal planning capabilities of local authorities through the identification of local hazards, assessment of local vulnerabilities suggestion of prevention measures, and production of vulnerability maps with high risk zones. 4. Improving risk communication between the local authorities, the private sector i.e cultural activists and the exposed community (tourists, pilgrims and local population) on local disaster issues to allow better and effective response in crisis situation; 5. Increasing the trust of locals and people in general in the cultural destinations. Project Description Disasters inevitably bring about crises.
